The Extraordinary Time Travelling Adventures of Baron Munchausen

The Quarry Theatre at St. Luke’s

An award-winning improvised comedy storytelling show.

Amazing tales elegantly told! Jackanory meets Whose Line Is It Anyway in this multi award-winning family show, where three top comedians are challenged to invent their own ridiculous tall-tales inspired by the Adventures of Baron Munchausen.

All they have are their wits, some silly hats and the (not always kind… !) suggestions of an audience of children to ensure it all ends happily ever after.

There will be pirates and princesses, unicorns and dragons, swordfights and spacemen, and all our stories are completely and irrefutably true!

WINNER: BEST CHILDRENS SHOW (Leicester Comedy Festival)

Standard tickets £14

Concession £12 Available to students (NUS or similar ID required), under 18s, unemployed, disabled, senior citizens (over 60’s)
